Negotiate a bonus/promotion not doing anything

My Sims has 10 charisma skill, and job level 6. The negotiate for a promotion option is available on the phone, but when I clicked on it, nothing happened. For references, all the other options there worked (e.g. quit a job, call in sick etc). 

I did play with Mods, but even after removing all the mods, the problem still persisted.
